October 9, 2014 - Trajkovski, Jahovic & Abdurahimi score in win over Luxembourg"Besart Abdurahimi pulled out all the stops with a splendid finish
deep into added time as FYR Macedonia came back from 2-1 down to beat
Luxembourg in UEFA EURO 2016 qualifying Group C. The
KSC Lokeren OV winger steadied himself out on the left before looping a
powerful drive over Jonathan Joubert, giving Luc Holtz's side no time
to respond. It was a cruel finish for Luxembourg, who had responded
positively to going behind in the first half, and continued to threaten
even after Adis Jahović's 66th-minute penalty cancelled out their
half-time lead. Aleksandar Trajkovski had gone close
before sweeping FYR Macedonia in front on 20 minutes, gathering
Joubert's punt upfield and weaving through the Luxembourg defence to
finish in some style. However, Stefano Bensi replied by bending a
free-kick inside Tome Pacovski's left-hand post on 39 minutes and then
nodded the ball on for David Turpel to peel off to the right and send an
angled shot through the exposed goalkeeper's legs before the interval." - UEFA
